Beauty sleep is a real thing, research shows

[Northerner]

Beauty sleep is a real thing, according to researchers who have shown that people who miss out on sleep do appear less attractive to others.

A couple of bad nights is enough to make a person look "significantly" more ugly, their sleep experiments suggest.

Dark-circled "panda" eyes and puffy lids can even put others off socialising with you, they say.

People were rated by strangers as less healthy and approachable when they had tired faces.

Hmmm....if that were true, I'd have women beating a path to my door, rather than saying isn't it about time you were up?

The other week in Tesco, having my pic taken for first bus pass, I was trying not to smile, I couldn't bear all the wrinkles!
